Crew Profile
Captain Nate
Nate is a life-long sailor with a passion for sharing his love of the sea. After landing his first job as a deckhand aboard the America's Cup winning twelve meter raceboat "Intrepid", he embarked on a journey around the world on a vast array of fine sailing yachts. He worked exclusively in the superyacht industry for six years as a deckhand, engineer then captain aboard vessels ranging from seventy to one hundred and twenty feet long, plying the Mediterranean, Caribbean, Atlantic and Pacific Oceans including two transatlantic passages and two trips through the Panama Canal. After a soul searching journey across the Indian Subcontinent by motorcycle and South East Asia he landed in New York City running day charter boats, a ferry, and teaching sailing courses. Seventeen years after signing his first contract to join a boats crew, Nate now runs his own sailing charter and yacht management business in The Hamptons and has taken the helm of the much loved Bali 5.4 "Ithaka". He is beyond excited to share stories and new adventures with his incoming charter guests this winter.
Chef Abby
Abby grew up in the Rocky Mountains of colorado before moving to Florida in 2014, where she began her career in the maritime world shortly after. Initially she spent time working as a stewardess, cruising the Caribbean, Mediterranean, and New England but her passion was always cooking delicious and cultural meals for her friends and family. In 2021 she made the jump to the position of stew/cook on a variety of small vessels and it was clear this was what she loved! After another couple years of honing her craft she decided to add some diversity to her culinary experience and went to Montana, where she worked as a sous chef at private guest ranch. It was here she gained some incredible knowledge of food, gastronomy, and giving guests a true farm to table experience. After that, Abby felt called back to the ocean and has since joined Ithaka where she couldn’t be happier to provide the guests with her repertoire of cultural food and dining experiences!
